Vote(poll) PHP not working

Question

Hi there, I have a problem with a vote thing in php

the code of my page is:

      $active = '1';
      $data = time();
      $autor = $_SESSION['username'];
      $question = $_POST['question'];

$contador = 2;
    $contagem = '0';
    while ($contagem <= $resps) {
    $contagem++;~
    $contador++;
    $question = $_POST['question'];
    $choice = $contagem;
    $teste = "choice$contador"; 
    $choice = $_POST['$teste']; 
    $activity = $_POST['question'];

    $votes = '0';
    $q2 = "INSERT INTO poll_answers (choice, activity, votes) VALUES ('$choice', '$activity', '$votes')";
    if($database->query($q2)){echo "sucssso answews";}else{echo "falha answrrs";}
    $contador++;
    }
    $q = "INSERT INTO poll_questions (question, active) VALUES ('$activity', '$active')";
    if($database->query($q))
    { echo "sucesso questoes";}
    else{ echo"falha questoes";}


    echo "inserido";

?>

<form action="" name="votacao2" method="post">
<table>
<tr><td><strong>Pergunta</strong></td><td><textarea name="question" cols="50" rows="1"></textarea></td></tr>
<?php
$contador = '2';
$respos = $resps + 2;
while ($contador < $respos) {
$contador++;
echo "<tr><td><strong>Resposta</strong></td><td><textarea name=\"choice$contador\" cols=\"50\" rows=\"1\"></textarea>
</td></tr>
";
}
?>
<tr><td><input type="submit" name="enviar" value="Enviar" /></td></tr>
</table>
</form>

I think the only thing not working is this:

$teste = "choice".$contador;
$choice = $_POST['$teste']; 

And I don«t know how to do it, so once again I ask your help.

Thanks in advance :)

I edit this post, so now I hope you understand my problem, I'm tryinmg to do a poll and it isnt working, when I insert the data, the row choice has a 0 in it, I can see it in phpmyadmin.

I didn't look at your source code, but if you think that is your problem:

$teste = "choice".$contador."";

$activity = $_POST[''.$teste.''];

try:

$teste = "choice".$contador;

$activity = $_POST[$teste];
